I'm engaged!! My now FI proposed on our first day in Vegas. It was perfect ! I've never been happier 
we are still on our amazing trip of a lifetime so when we get home I will post more details of the amazing proposal story and of course pics of my dream ring!! The proposal was perfect and it's a story I'll be able to tell for the rest of my life. Plus this trip is so amazing! I really wanted a great proposal story and my FI really came through! I'm so happy and so in love!
I know it's a teaser to not post pictures (Im on my iPad, no computer!! Sorry) but here is a little about the ring to get us started.
It's a 3 stone ec ring. The center stone is 1.57 carats, D color, Ideal cut, VS1 clarity (although the appraiser said an argument could be made for VVS2!!). It's a longer center stone with 1.6 ratio. The side stones are 1.21 total carat weight (so about .6ish carats each), D color and VS1 clarity with 1.5 ratio each. Total carat weight is 2.78 ct!!! The setting is white gold, Tiffany style basket setting. This bad boy sparkles like crazy and I'm having such a great time seeing how it performs in all different lighting situations! Especially on the Vegas strip at night - so many different colors to reflect!! I can't wait to show pics!
The appraiser said this ring would sell for retail at 10'000$ (at least!) more than what we paid, which makes me feel SO grateful that we found PS and went through a PS vendor as we really truly got the best bang for our buck!
Anyhow I'm in love with my fiancé, I'm in love with my ring, I'm in love with story of our engagement, I'm just in love all around!! Plus yesterday was my birthday! Best birthday of my life!!! I'll post pics and stories when we get home! Thanks for all of the support and company, LIW's!!!! And thanks for reading
